QB Baker Mayfield shows zero interest in Chargers' playbook

With exactly a week away from the 2018 NFL draft, teams are starting to finalize their big boards and discussing who they feel will suit their respective squads. For the Chargers, it is worth noting whether or not they will have former Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield on theirs after he made some remarks when reporters asked how he felt he did in a meeting with Los Angeles.

“I didn’t look at their playbook as much as a I should have. It could have gone a little bit better, but at the same time, I’m prioritizing which playbooks I’m going to learn. No offense to them, but I’ve got a lot on my plate,” Mayfield said, per Sports Illustrated.

At 6-foot and 215 pounds, Mayfield is one of the most polarizing prospects in the 2018 draft class. Aside from being undersized for his position for some, the former Sooners’ character has been questionable, as he was arrested in February of 2017 for public intoxication and resisting arrest. Mayfield also has been seen grabbing his nether regions on camera in a lude fashion during a contest as well.

Despite some of the immature behavior, Mayfield is one of the most talented quarterbacks in this year’s draft class. The Oklahoma product is a mobile quarterback, but he doesn’t rely on his feet. Instead, he uses his legs as another part of his game when needed, often moving around in an attempt to find an open wide receiver.

Los Angeles currently holds the No. 17 overall pick in this year’s draft, and it seems likely that they would have to trade up if they want a crack at Mayfield after being projected as a top-10 selection, but after his comments, it’s unlikely that they would make a move to select him.
